25 Weeks and Nursery Sneak Peek!

25 weeks and feeling pretty good. I am still getting the tightening belly quite often that sometimes causes me to feel light headed and/or short of breath. But, better than last week and I even think my belly isn't quite as big! I have an appointment next week to check on everything and measure Peanut, so I am very much looking forward to seeing her again...I mean, it has been a whole week and a half since I have seen her and I am going through withdrawal!!

Another exciting development - Jameson was also able to feel his baby sister kick on April 17! Forgot to mention that in the last post. I have been feeling her kick at him when we rock at nap time/night time for quite some time, but I know he wasn't able to feel it. Well, one night, she was going bananas in my tummy (as usual!), so I asked him if he wanted to feel her and he happily said yes. I put his hand on my belly and sure enough, she started poking and kicking at him. He looked up at me and smiled an ear to ear smile! I asked if he felt it and he giggled and said, "baby sister is kicking me!'. Love it!

We also decided on the nursery decor and furniture! I actually ordered the furniture last night. I had a slight panic attack afterwards since I have been cautious about buying anything. But, I am so excited about decorating the nursery and figured I had better start now in case that dreaded bed rest word comes up again down the road! I saw this nursery design online in a blog about a year ago and fell in love. When I found out baby Peanut was a girl, I knew it's what we were going to do! I was able to design the bedding myself and am anxious to get it so I can order the wall decor and other accessories for the room! Even though Jameson didn't sleep in his room until 4 months, we still want to have the nursery done for the most part before she arrives - just makes things easier, especially with two kids!



25 weeks!
